So does anyone want to step up and offer some comments:

Of J&L, OA and King Eds what are their pros and cons regarding:

Hardware selection and prices
Coral selection and prices
Fish selection and prices
Invertebrates selection and prices
Customer service

Vendor rating is fround upon at Canreef as it never leads to a constructive thread. I'm sure you will get some PMs on the subject if people want to comment

Hi guys, yeah, unfortunately when we say "pros and cons" to a store it means we're pretty much rating the store. Unfortunately this is a practice which has led to many heated arguments in the past and even in some extreme cases, threats of litigation, so our policy now is that we can't do it. Sorry. However, what gets said in a PM is not anyone's business but the sender and receiver, so if anyone has any really strong feelings on a store that they are compelled to share, that might be an avenue.

As a fellow addict .. err.. hobbyist though, I would have to say, visit all of them! That's what I would do.

Ooops thanks.
